I just installed my GNU/Linux distribution's (openSUSE 12.1) Emacs 23.3,
and it shows the same behavior as my build from the trunk: no fancy splash
image with -q, frame-height = 35, image-size returns (38.57142857142857
. 15.5).  With Emacs 23.2 from openSUSE 11.4, emacs -q does display the
splash image.  Could this have to do with the GTK+ version (2.24.7 in
openSUSE 12.1)?
